Ammo. Wtf

Well now inflation is going to keep prices up but when’s supply going to catch up?

I was at a Sportsmans that opened a few weeks ago. They had ALLLLLLLLL the ammo but Fuck those prices. And limits on quantity allowed to be purchased.

I snagged some projos and 2lbs of h4350

My stash is getting quite low.

I want my damn $1 6.5 140 eld and $0.65 140 bthp back ! FJB

And there is zero specialty ammo to be found. Fuck

With the price of fuel having doubled in a year and the price of food skyrocketing, I think you'll find low prices are a thing of the past, but low wages are still a thing of the present, and high taxes are a thing of the near future.

For the last few years I had a real hard time justifying my time and money tied up in reloading. At $1 per round of prime or fgmm, it’s not worth reloading anything other than magnum rounds. Right now, I’m glad I have all the components
 
America has dug itself into a pretty deep hole... We all have our estimates of how many years it took to dig us this deep. For conversation, let's say it took us 5 years to dig this deep.... If that's the case, it will take 5 years to dig ourselves out of this hole. But again, we have to stop digging any deeper.

Prepare accordingly.
 
I actually snagged some 9mm in person for about 360/1000. It was slightly high; but it was a mom and pop type store in Corinth, MS. They had a ton of 9 reasonably priced and though I'd not planned on buying anything (I was driving through) the fact they were not really gouging based on current environment I bought some. Stores like that deserve business. Just my 0.02.

Easy enough to find steel cased shit online, but venture off into match 223/5.56, 308, and 6.5 and the prices go up considerably. Likely, and sadly, this is the way it's going to be. I'd predicted no earlier than end of 2022 I think somewhere online. But I'm going to have to revise that to say 2024/2025 at earliest will we normalize supply and likely prices may decrease 25-35% but no more.

Targetsports and outdoorlimited seem to be consistently out of stock or astronomically priced when available. Especially outdoorlimited. I imagine though, in their defense, that this market is very hard to make money in due to massively fluctuating prices.
